ok the second week i put out my trail camera i had 34 does come in one week..and now two weeks later i had 4 deer come...they are over a gravity corn feeder in a 2 acre plot with planted corn that is now ready but wasnt when we had 34 does come...what is happening

Deer change their patterns as the food sources change. They like corn, but they like other foods also.

how much rain have you gotten??

pretty good amount...it is crazy this time a year in georgia it can be perfecly clear in the mornin and raining heavy in the afternoon

Deer at this time of year still have a variety of foods to choose from. The closer to Fall we get, their preferred food supply diminishes and their options smaller and that corn will start looking more appetizing then.

Just give it time. Keep us informed later on about those deer numbers.

x2 Find the acorns!!!

Could be that you checked the cam too soon and spooked the deer. I have had that problem in the past, where I get something like 15 bucks on cam one week, 5 the next and 1 or 2 the third. That was a few years ago and I attributed it to checking them too often. Try to check your cams only about twice a month.

this is what the field looks like sitting in the stand looking forward...30 yrds of planted pines behind us then a paved road.to the left there are planted pines which is where the deer come out from...in very back there is roughly 100 yards of clear hardwoods with a creek... the feeder is in the back left where there is a road that we built with the bulldozer...

Here in central ky, white oak acorns are starting to fall, and most of my deer have moved to the alfalfa, with all the rain we have had, almost time for the 3rd cut on the alfalfa field.

I'm guessing the food source changed.
